English snobbishness.

A curious little story is told Of the
snobbis hness OF London society and the
real kindness of heart in the family OF the
Prince OF Wales. There il in London an
American dentist who is very skillful in
his profession, and among other people
has attended the Princess of Wales. He
was invited TO one of the annual garden
psrties at Marlboro House, aud met there
nearly fifty OF his patients. They cnt him
to q man. Soon after he found himself
face to face with the Prince and Princess,
and they at once gave him a cordial re-
ception, and shook him warmly by the
hand. At once every one OF the fifty pa
tien.s pressed up to the lucky dentist and
shook hands with equal warmth.

WHY NOR

The Now York Herald says there is a
very considerable want of harmony in
the labor party just now. Well, gentle
men, sappose you disagree, what OF it,
When everybody thinks alike there is
hardly any incentive to think at all.
But when there is n sharp difference oil
opinion and the contestants get thor
oughly reused. aud in their earnestness
fling pretty large sized epithets at each
other, then the brainies. man gravitates
to the top and becomes a natural leader.
This is q country where a great deal OF
talking is done, and some of it is a little
wild, but when it comes to organized ac-
ton then we are always conservative.
In the labor unions and among the
knights the quarrel that is in progress
will do no harm; on the other hand it
will do good. The ventilation of all the
facts of the case and a red hot argument
about the policy to be pursued, with a
safe amount of elimination and recrlmi-
nation, will help the wage carners OF the
country to make up their minds as to
what is for their best interest, and per.
haps show them the most practicsi
method of attaining it.
We havn't the slightest sympathy
with those of our contemporaries who
taunt the laborers because they don't get
on smoothly. Why, there is nothing
that helps on a great cause SO much as a
quarrel. Human nature would lose its
pith and stamina if men were not con.
tradicted now and then. It is not neces.
sary to come to blows, but a good spir-
tied controversy is the steam that keeps
up the speed Of the locomotive.
And by the way, gentlemen, the Dem.
ocratic party is the real labor party of
this country. It is the party OF the
people, of the masses. This is what its
very name implies. 1t is your party,
and its policy is your policy. 1t was
founded ON the principle that "a mans
a man for a. that" aud it stands for the
equal rights OF all our citizens.

Fascination. Of Mining.

Wood River Times: Mining 10 fascinat-

for the "aimighty dollar " is an all-ab-
sorbing passion with US, anyhow.

Miss Ada Rutland. and arrangements

was ready. All at once the bride ap.
peared. A thrill of excitement, mingled
with admiration. ran through the party.
The white dress worn by the lady was
seen to be decorated by gar!ands of white
doves too numerous TO be counted. The
face Of the Marquis darkened as he
asked, r Where did you get theses'
"oR..' was the quick response, hit
upon this splendid idea myself and gave
instructions to the farmers on my En-.
glish estates months ago to catch all the
doves they could and send them to me-
"And you suppose" coidly said the
Marquis, "that | can take you to my
